Learn how to generate more visual ideas than you ever thought possible! In Graphic Design this term, we will practice making informed choices about color, composition, and typography as we explore the design language of the Harlem Renaissance. Bold colors, angular shapes, high contrast, and plenty of movement define the art of this exciting era, leaving lots of room for exploration and visual play! Students will build skills in visual communication, iteration, presentation, and critique… but most importantly, we will have lots of fun!

About the instructor: This class will be in collaboration with Sam's winter term history class, Black History, where students will be steeped in the literature and music of the Harlem Renaissance. There will be overlap in assignments and materials for these classes!
